Does it go with Tabitha?

Or is it too Oliver Twist?

Very nice, I like it.

Lazymummy2014 · 20/11/2014 18:26

No to both questions! I like it as a name, think it's a bit much with tabitha though. Doubt too many people will link to Oliver Twist, I love Dickins but my first thought was Nancy Drew!

It's what all the best people are called Grin

Trisarahtops · 20/11/2014 18:27

I think David Cameron (it is his daughters name).

Four125 · 20/11/2014 18:29

It is one of my favourite names Wink

wizzler · 20/11/2014 18:32

I think it lovely and perfect with Tabitha

Twittwooo · 20/11/2014 19:09

I loved Nancy until I read the bit about David Cameron ..

AdorableAbbie · 20/11/2014 21:25

I like it and also like tabitha

AnythingNotEverything · 20/11/2014 21:35

I bloody love it (for current growing bean) but the Cameron connection puts me off a little. Goes well with Tabitha. Great taste Wink

VioletVelvet · 20/11/2014 22:51

I think Nancy is lovely and sounds really nice with Tabitha.

hollie84 · 20/11/2014 22:52

I love it and think it is great with Tabitha.

Mammanat222 · 21/11/2014 13:11

Love it but couldn't have it on our list as we have a Nancy in the immediate family.

squoosh · 21/11/2014 13:33

Reminds me of Nancy Blackett from Swallows and Amazons. Bossy and go-getting but still quite likeable. Goes well with Tabitha.

NoisyLittleToads · 21/11/2014 14:02

I really like it.

Probably going to rise in popularity though due to Eastenders the same way Lola, Lexi & Tommy did.

tammytoby · 22/11/2014 08:03

Love Tabitha - beautiful and elegant.

Hate Nancy - unfeminine and frumpy imo. Sound American too imo.

AnythingNotEverything · 22/11/2014 08:10

Oh no - is there a Nancy in Eastenders?

NoisyLittleToads · 22/11/2014 12:45

Yep Danny Dyers daughter.

akorda · 22/11/2014 13:19

Don't really like Nancy, sorry. But have never come across one. It seems to be the kind of name people think about using but don't actually use. EastEnders may change that?

Other names that might be in the same bracket are: Polly; Meg; Susan; Peggy; Winnie?

squaretoes · 22/11/2014 13:36

I love Nancy!! I know a 2 year old Nancy and she is super cute!! It's unusual enough but not too weird imo.
